DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash vs Inkling-Small

DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash

The first wall and floor images provide limited reflection geometry, but the room's mirror recurrence is substantially incomplete, particularly the outer-edge chains and lateral sightlines. The main sphere and its large reflected images lack ordered, curved room and virtual-sphere imagery. Repeated emitter mapping is missing from both planar mirrors and spherical surfaces.

Inkling-Small

The sphere's apparent floor support, separate dark feature and broad paint ordering justify partial state credit. The major weakness is the largely missing mirror system: isolated side images and faint floor echoes do not establish repeated virtual rooms or curved spherical mapping. Downward framing, the oversized frontal panel, unresolved paint transport and satin surface appearance remain distinct limitations.

Expressive faces, cobalt coloring and a flowing diagonal composition make the mutual inspection charming. Execution is uneven: the long pointed flipper lacks a convincing grip, the enlarged shrimp face appears detached from its body, and the large lens is oval. Flat anatomical shading and an unexplained purple ringed patch beneath the whale weaken the requested polished depth.

Inkling-Small

The faces and dripping caps communicate a cute mushroom scene, but simple construction and weak spatial relationships limit the result. The defining foot-stamping action is unresolved, the flattering portrait is smaller than its painter, and the requested material contrasts are only partly conveyed.

A whale and a tiny shrimp examine one another through bubble lenses, with an octopus nearby. The scene tests interacting characters, differences in scale and transparent materials.

Inkling-Small

Character scenes test expression, anatomy, materials and coherent visual construction.

The centered portrait, dark hair, crossed hands and muted landscape make the reference recognizable. Replication is limited by the frontal pose, staring eyes and weakly defined smile. Hands are overlapping oval masses with almost no finger articulation, while wrists disappear into sleeves. Soft gradients suggest volume, but broad, indistinct surfaces and faint stray lines leave the drawing basic and uneven.

Inkling-Small

A recognizable but rudimentary Mona Lisa interpretation. Facial shading and subdued colors provide coherence, while the frontal blocklike torso, unresolved wrists, fingerless hands and shallow landscape substantially limit likeness, construction and finish.

The glowing sunset, silhouetted palm and playful foreground create a coherent, appealing beach illustration. Birds, crab, boat and reflections fulfill the brief. The airborne animals have weakly defined anatomy and little convincing splash interaction. Broad, blurred reflections and largely flat surfaces limit depth and finish.

Inkling-Small

A recognizable sunset beach with a clear focal sun and appealing color transitions. Connected fish silhouettes and layered scenery establish basic coherence. Primitive figures, ambiguous recreation, sparse descriptive detail and weak grounding limit construction and depth. The aligned reflection supplies a useful lighting cue, but shadows and material effects remain underdeveloped.

DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash

The sunset palette and silhouetted grouping establish an appealing scene. A masked rider sits above a pointed-eared dog, but merged body shapes leave limbs and support unresolved. The boatlike craft lacks readable steering controls, so the requested action is unclear. Sparse facial marks and glowing spray dots offer limited detail.

Inkling-Small

Recognizable animals, readable accessories and an appealing sunset support a coherent basic cartoon. Rounded construction leaves joints, riding support and steering unresolved. Decorative gradients contribute atmosphere, but directional lighting, distinct materials and convincing water displacement are weakly demonstrated.

A recognizable pelican rides a brightly colored bicycle against a striking sunset. The sweeping bill, trailing scarf and circular wheels create a controlled composition. Both legs connect, but pedal linkage, body support and the wing's handlebar grip remain loosely resolved. Clean vector shapes and feather details work well; simplified shading limits volume and integration with the sunset light.

Inkling-Small

The pelican is immediately recognizable, and its sweeping neck, shaped bill and orderly spokes provide character. Riding remains only partially realized: legs, pedal engagement, steering and seat support cannot be read confidently. Controlled graphic effects add atmosphere, but simplified construction and weak grounding keep the result basic.
